Chapter 282

"Hum!"

After Xu Chen swallowed the Second-turn Martial Saint soul of Lang Zhu, he instantly digested it, causing his Divine Sense to surge dramatically.

In an instant, his Divine Sense, which was estimated to take three days to ascend, skyrocketed at this moment.

Ultimately, Xu Chen's Divine Sense reached the level of a Three-turn Martial Saint.

With such a Divine Sense, he didn't even need to activate any Martial Art to crush a First-turn Martial Saint.

If he unleashed the Saint-Spirit Soul-Sealing Palm, not even a Second-turn Martial Saint could survive—let alone a Three-turn Martial Saint.

Thinking this over, he turned to the Tianhuan Sect members and said coolly: "Lang Zhu belongs to your sect."

Upon hearing this, the Tianhuan Sect members' foreheads instantly drenched in cold sweat: "W-we didn't know Lang Zhu would…" "Boom!" Before the man could finish, his body spontaneously exploded into a mist of blood, his Divine Soul annihilated instantly.

Xu Chen spoke: "I'm not here to listen to your explanations. I'm here to say 'five-four-three'—today, your sect doesn't need to remain."

The Tianhuan Sect members' pupils shrank slightly: "On what grounds? Don't push too far."

Xu Chen's expression turned slightly cold: "Lang Zhu could act so recklessly only because you all tacitly approved."

The Tianhuan Sect members fell silent immediately.

Indeed, they had also wanted to see whether Lang Zhu could kill Xu Chen. Xu Chen turned to Luo Qianshang: "Any objections?"

Luo Qianshang's lips twitched: Do you think my objection would even matter?

He grimaced: "Could you, for my sake, spare the Tianhuan Sect?" The Tianhuan Sect was a force he had cultivated for a long time in the Dark Dragon Abyss.

If it vanished suddenly, it would be like losing his left and right arms—how could he ever compete with Luo Shen again? Xu Chen replied calmly: "If you try to stop me, I won't mind killing you too." Upon hearing this, Luo Qianshang's face turned utterly grim.

Xu Chen's words showed he didn't regard Luo Qianshang at all.

Nearby, Jing Lian and Gongsun Piaomiao chuckled: "We've disliked this Tianhuan Sect for a long time—let us handle it."

Xu Chen paused, then said: "Fine."

The Tianhuan Sect's Patriarch, Lu Xingtian, glared at Jing Lian and Gongsun Piaomiao: "I fear Xu Chen—but I don't necessarily fear you two."

As he spoke, Lu Xingtian's body trembled violently.

A peak First-turn Martial Saint aura erupted from his body, surging outward like an endless tide.

Instantly, space cracked, the pressure overwhelming, chaotic currents swirling uncontrollably.

Holding a long spear, Lu Xingtian, flanked by numerous Elders and a Supreme Elder, pointed directly at the two women: "If you dare step forward today, I'll exterminate you both."

Jing Lian smiled lightly: "If all four major sects came together, I might hesitate—but you? You're just offering yourself as meat."

"Hum!"

In that instant, she activated the Great Sun Imperishable Body.

Immediately, a colossal Spirit Body, identical to her own face, appeared behind her.

This Spirit Body was wreathed in golden light, radiating immense power; with every breath, space shattered inch by inch.

Simultaneously, chants of Sanskrit echoed, sacred Buddhist phrases reverberated endlessly.

Most notably, the Spirit Body's palms and back bore massive inscribed characters.

At this moment, hundreds of thousands in the Dark Dragon Abyss felt the overwhelming might of the Great Sun Imperishable Body.

Everyone's pupils shrank in shock: "W-what kind of Martial Art is this?"

Fahai gasped in disbelief: "The legendary Emperor-tier Cultivation Method—the Great Sun Imperishable Body? She's already able to cultivate it?"

Upon hearing this, the crowd's faces filled with awe: "Great Sun Imperishable Body? Emperor-tier Cultivation Method?"

Jing Lian smiled lightly: "Just the seventh layer of an Emperor-tier Cultivation Method—equivalent to a Saint-tier Advanced technique. Die."

As she spoke, Jing Lian raised her right hand.

The next instant, the colossal palm of the Spirit Body slammed down onto the Tianhuan Sect's territory.

As it descended, the Tianhuan Sect members tried to flee.

But the inscribed character struck first, freezing them all in place.

Then, the golden palm crushed down upon the thousands.

"Aaaah!"

Amidst countless screams, the thousands were reduced to pulped flesh.
